Rebel baseball downed by Missouri Tigers at home

The Rebels lost the first game 9-3 of their weekend series against the University of Missouri after Cole Bartlett, starting pitcher for the Tigers, tossed a complete game, giving up just three runs.

Ole Miss starting pitcher James McArthur started off the game by retiring the first three Tigers batters. The next two innings did not go as smoothly.

The top of the second started off with a leadoff double that was followed up by a two-run blast to left center field from Brett Bond. The next inning, Mizzou’s Connor Brumfield smoked a home run over the right field bullpen, breaking the tie and making the score 3-2.
